When choosing a new floor covering, it is important to find one that complements the style of your home and internal décor, but we should also be thinking more about the environment and how our decisions affect the future of our planet. Bamboo is a smart choice and will last you a lifetime if you care for your flooring properly.
How is bamboo flooring sustainable
Bamboo is actually a grass, not a tree as some may think. It grows extremely fast and reaches maturity in as little as 5 years. This makes bamboo one of the most sensible, renewable and abundant resources for flooring and other household items.
Natural and eco-friendly
Bamboo grows naturally without the need for pesticides or fertilizers. When the crops are mature, the forests can be carefully harvested, leaving the bamboo roots intact, which will re-generate and continue to grow more healthy abundant bamboo for decades to come. This helps to maintain a healthy ecological balance for plants, wildlife and surrounding villages, and no areas of deforestation occur.
Strong and durable
The unique structure and composition of bamboo means that it has a higher tensile strength than any type of hardwood. Bamboo is known for being strong and it is widely used across the world for building materials and furniture. If you choose strand woven bamboo flooring, it is over twice as hard as Oak and can even be used in busy commercial areas.
